I think the real solution is not to lend on fake money. Tax or no tax, it wasn't taxes that caused the market crash in 2008.
Thank you. Even if they pass something it will be written by a bureaucratic bean counter and will be riddled with loopholes.
Simply don't allow loans on stocks. Keep it simple.
Ok but then you'll pay taxes on that sale so there's no problem.
That's only for you humans. We corporations only pay if we net a profit. Also, if we loose money, we can carry it over to next year as a tax exemption. Good luck, ugly bags of mostly water.
Eh so... If you lose money you also can carry the tax rebate over to the next year in the US...
Yes, humans as well.

Same as companies, just a different maximum amount per year and what's left can be applied to the next year and the next and the next...
Don't hurt your back moving that goalpost
Oh funny, you deleted your comment instead of admitting you were moving the goalpost!
If you make a 30k loss you can get a 3k deduction every year for 10 years.
Corporations have limits to their annual deduction amount as well, it's higher than individuals because duh (if you make enough a year that you compare yourself to corporations and feel that you should be entitled to over 250k in tax deductions a year then I don't know how you don't know how that works).
All money is fake money, though.
The real money is the friends we made along the way who owe us favors.
That doesn't work. It's not enforceable.
Not enforceable as a law, but not bailing out those who do it is a great way to put an end to it.
I'd rather just have it done than give them another thing they can pressure politicians to bail them out of later.
Then good luck getting a house mortgage because you can't lend based on future income because it's not guaranteed. When I bought my house they incorporated the value of my brokerage account. I wouldn't be able to own a place if they didn't.
With house mortgages it's collateralized against the house, a physical object, but it has only a fake value until it's actually sold because house prices can go up or down.
